Roof Spoiler Question
Hey guys I am interested in picking up a roof spoiler and I could not find a good thread with any info on what people recommend. I see that there are so many different roof spoilers for the ISF and i have no idea which one to pick. Soo if those of you with roof spoilers could help me out and put up a picture of your roof spoiler and give it a little review that would be great.
please include how you installed it and if you had any fitment issues.
Thanks
Zack

I got mind from these guy on EBay and fitment/paint was perfect. plus for the price, you just can’t beat it. All it uses is double sided tape to you window for install.

I got the ebay CF one for under $100 I think. Fitment is good, real nice addition to the car. Stuck on with 3m doublesided auto tape. I've had it on for about 6 months and you can see the clear coat fogging up already. Might need a polish. I think I will get it painted to match my car after this summer. I will still be under the cost of an authentic on tho!

They all look sorta the same. The only difference is the brand. Do you prefer ebay as oppose to brands lke WALD, Artisan Spirits, Think Design, etc. And yes, all of them are held together by "auto-body grade" double sided tape, might just be the double sided tape at Walgreens for all I know with mine....lol. It's been through high pressure car washes so I know it is good. If you think about it, the spoiler is not very agressive at all, so there shouldn't be much fight against the wind.
Also get it for looks, b/c it will not give you more shade in the back.....lol. One of the most must-have and sensible mod to the IS-F.

To update, I have had my ebay CF roof spoiler on for about 8 months now.. Paid about $100 shipped. Already about a 1/4 of the clear coat is foggy. I used the 3m auto tape from Autozone to put it on, one long piece across the entire spoiler. I am not sure if its the heat of this super hot summer on my black car while I'm at work, or what.. but I noticed the spoiler was starting to loosen up on one side, the tape won't hold on the driver's side half! I'm going to rip it off tonight so I dont lose it on the expressway, like I had read another member lost one.
I expected the clear coat to be lousy on the knock off ebay spoiler, from what everyone has told me it would yellow quickly. I didnt think it'd be less than a year tho! I plan on having it painted to match my car, I think it will flow better being black. Even after having it painted, it will still be half the price for an authentic one. So I am still pretty happy with my purchase

Hi
I ordered the roof spolier yesterday on ebay. I will see how easy it is to install. Any tips would be appreciated. Another question would be about the trunk spoiler. How easy is it to take off the stock one and put a carbon fiber one? Where should I buy one from? I see a few listings on ebay.
